NaNoWriMo Kicks Off

Here in New York, NaNoWriMo kicked off last night -- a day early because of Halloween -- with a widely attended party in Manhattan. ML extraordinaire Erin O'Brien estimated that some 100 people had shown up (so many more than last year that they risked running out of pizza). In other parts of the country, I know kick-off parties are happening tonight, in costume. Either way, it's a great chance to connect with other participants, meet your local MLs, and get psyched to start writing: midnight tonight, it's all systems go. Good luck Wrimos everywhere, and happy writing.
